Pensare a ciò che si vuole mangiare ha un effetto saziante, sono queste le conclusioni a cui giunge uno studio , dal mio punto di vista molto discutibile, condotto da un gruppo di psicologi americani che ha ottenuto la pubblicazione recentemente su Science .
I ricercatori della Carnegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania , hanno chiesto a 25 studenti di immaginare di mangiare 30 caramelle al cioccolato ed altri 25 di pensare al rumore di una lavatrice, dopo venivano offerte caramelle al cioccolato , il 50 % dei membri del primo gruppo ne mangiava meno rispetto al secondo gruppo. Lo stesso esperimento è stato condotto sul formaggio, con risultati simili. Conclusion imagine eating affects the appetite and is eating less!
Carey The researcher, who led the study said in an interview "We believe that our results can be sensational used to develop behavioral treatments for obesity, but could help manage the addiction to alcohol, drugs and cigarettes . Carey dear I were you I'd go a bit 'more cautious, or as we say in my country I'd fly a bit' lower.
Because if we follow the twisted thinking of the study we can solve the problem of world hunger by showing pictures of food? Obviously NO! An experiment conducted on 50 subjects for its students is much more restrictive and with some formal defect! A bill is to give something to someone who is satisfied is one thing to offer it to someone who has cramps instead of hunger, while recognizing that a momentary satisfaction but it may be possible but how long can this last?
I think in the society of today we have the opposite problem, there is what I have called Bulimia visual not go on television when it comes to food from news to weather reports, newspaper full of cooking magazines but also those not linger in the kitchen on topics that have food as a protagonist, blogs and websites mushrooming (I also do my small contribution), in the department library is the fullest and most visited, television theme channels, with cameras chef in the kitchen every round of applause omelette claim.

Despite this overflow this overexposure we should feel even more exhausted than satisfied yet the number of cases of obesity are rising as the eating disorders, perhaps the problem lies elsewhere, about the pleasure of something with their hands and at the same time meet one of our five senses, and above all does not mean that this is a problem. See or think of the food is not said that even resize your appetite so far leads to a stimulus in some subjects continue to consume food 24 hours 24.
I say this because these days I would never want someone to open a restaurant where the menu imaginative visual therapeutic me I have to dream, but imagine eating a lobster as I imagine it will cost to eat hake? And the bill? What I guess I'll have to pay cash! Thinking of this study, I was reminded of the scene of the film Laurel and Hardy where they pretended to eat at the table in a guest house of lunatics.
